A Georgetown staple since 2011 offering the best selection of traditional Shanghai and Szechuan Chinese cuisine known for delicious handmade dumplings, soup buns, and dry hot pots.
This was the perfect chinese takeaway!!! the 6 House Hand Made Dumplings 手工水饺 were delicious and the Sesame Chicken 芝麻鸡 held well in the drive over and was even a still crispy! would definitely order again.

The two chicken dishes all
tasted the same, sesame chicken ,human chicken and felt very fried. Soup was delivered 3/4 for a container which was 3.95 each. No flavor and very disappointed based on friends recommendation

I've ordered from this restaurant a few times now, and it has beat out my usual go to (withholding the name to protect the innocent lol).
I've had egg drop soup, which was very flavorful and helped soothe my upset stomach, and vegetable fried R8. Lovely Fried Rice 私房炒饭, as well as spring rolls beore. I've never had spring rolls this flaky or fresh. They were delicious and the vegetable fried rice is the best I've had in the area.
Last night, I ordered the Black Mushroom with Shanghai Bokchoy 香菇菜心 and a side of fried rice. This is where the star is deducted. The fried rice side, while flavorful, is a bit on the dry side. However, the entree was delicious!
Now, the true test. My boyfriend is very picky about his Chinese food, but he devoured the chicken fried rice he ordered last night. He was a bit iffy on trying Shanghai Lounge since he is also a creature of habit, but trusted my taste buds and has now declared it "our spot."
You will have leftovers, but that's fine because youll want them. Thats how good they are.

I love Chinese and selected this place for an office lunch for more than 10ppl, all the dishes we received were great however today when ordering for just myself the Side Veggie Fried Rice 小炒饭 fried rice had no veggies it was just fried rice and the Dan Dan Noodle 担担面 I asked extra spicy and received mostly a bowl of oil and noodles.

The Diced Chicken Chili Pepper 辣子鸡丁 was mostly breading and very oil laden. The flavors were definitely there though. The V2. Ma Po Tofu 麻婆豆腐 with pork was very good. Both came piping hot and portion sizes were generous.
